I heard many people made it to the physical. Has anyone heard anything? I thought they were only selecting a hand full of people to move on but I know someone with a 87 that got asked to come to the physical which I was surprised since Morris usually has high scores.

It looks like they are running two separate days of physical tests for those who scored 87 and above. The Morris scores are very high with some candidates scoring 94's and a lot of others between 91.35 and 94. Morris is very competitive all of the way through the interviews and final selection.

Therefore would you say someone who has scored a 91.8 has a pretty good shot to get in since still? I overheard they will be having 32 spots so I’m wondering if my chances are still pretty good as long as my interview goes well. Thanks

That score would definitely be in contention. While not a lot of candidates fail the physical, some do fail and some simply don't show up. Also, a lot of candidates really bomb the interview and essentially nullify their exceptional test score. After that, no shortage of candidates have background issues that knock them out or back on the list. Likewise, no shortage of candidates with very high scores are in other processes for departments and academies and may not be in a position to accept a slot. Anyone who moves forward to the physical has a shot at this point if the academy fills the max number of slots over the two classes.

Yes, the psychs are scheduled for those who have initially been selected.
